i was sitting at the library at my school tonight doing some work and took a break before i started my psych reading to listen to 'push me, pull me' on my ipod. i liked the song before but hearing it on headphones blew me away. anyone else feel this way about the song?

    the little wave-crashes of guitar in the background. ahhh. it's amazing :)

    I listened to this song about 10 times this weekend. Great song. I've seen people do pearl jam tattoos on their wrist and i could see myself getting this one on my wrist. I probably won't get one, but i could see that being one i would do.

    Great song! This song along with Help help are musically and lyrically very underrated in the PJ music catalogue! IMO

    If reality...is what I see

    An overlooked gem. Vastly underrated.

    You people! Always reading my mind. This is one of my favorite lyrics, and its placement in the song is PERFECT. I love, love, love this song. It is SO under-appreciated.

    For what it's worth...It's a good song.
    It totally flows when played on the record. But It's not something I'd put on my iPod.

    I've never heard it live...but then again...I didn't think much of "Arc" until I saw Eddie play it live this year. And that song has been given a whole new life because of it.

    I agree would totally be a kickass first encore opener!!!!

    I hate the beating this song usually takes, cuz I really dig the live version even though it has only been played a few times.

    Given the theme of "nature"...I would assume "Sun"...however, you throw an interesting take into the mix.

    Great song

    "But let me say; if I behave, can you arrange a spacious hole in the ground
    Somewhere nice, make it nice
    Where the land meets my tide
    Push me, pull me, push me, or pull me out"

    Love that line.
